In all dynasties, the military system was established by the emperor, and no matter how it develops, it will continue the military system of the first emperor, and it will never be easily changed, because it will lead to the interests of many people, and the old and new generals will try their best to prevent it.

Therefore, if he wants to rebuild a new military system, Zhou Chuan must have the determination to break the kettle.

The demise of Yu Linwei and the demise of the palace guards were all preparations made by Zhou Chuan in order to promote the new military system, and he knew that if a dynasty wanted to develop for a long time, it was necessary to ensure that the blood of the army was always fresh and corruption could not be allowed to sprout.

Knowing this, Zhou Chuan paid special attention to the system of army reconstruction, and he had to consider how to rebuild the military system without shaking the foundation of the Wu Zhou Dynasty.

Especially when the Fenglin Dynasty is eyeing the land, it won't be long before the Fenglin Dynasty will launch a war against the Wuzhou Dynasty, which is bound to happen.

After dealing with Yu Linwei's affairs, Zhou Chuan returned directly to the palace, and spent the morning thinking about how to deal with the current military system. The existing system is not enough to keep a dynasty fresh and alive.

"Meng Yi, let me ask you, if the method of dividing the fields of war is used to carry out military and political reform, will it be beneficial to the Wuzhou Dynasty?"

"Your Majesty, can you elaborate. Meng Yi was a little confused, and replied with a little embarrassment.

"All the official positions of the generals have been re-changed, and the military merits are rewarded with Juntian Yuanshi, beheading one level, one acre of land, and one Yuanshi. ”

"The positions of personnel in the army are ranked from lowest to highest: private of the ninth class, private of the eighth class, private of the seventh class, corporal of the sixth class, corporal of the fifth class, sergeant of the fourth class, sergeant of the third class, sergeant of the second class, and sergeant of the first class. Each level can command five people in the lower position. ”

"The non-commissioned officer is the commander, the junior non-commissioned officer can command ten sergeants, the intermediate non-commissioned officer chief can command ten junior non-commissioned officers, and the senior non-commissioned officer chief can command ten intermediate non-commissioned officers. ”

"In the future, when the army will be expanded, then there will be ensigns, lieutenants, captains, majors, lieutenant colonels, colonels, major generals, lieutenant generals, generals, and finally marshals. However, these positions will only be available in the near future. ”

"The more beheadings, the more rewards, but if there is a killing merit, then it must be beheaded for public display, and his family is not allowed to join the army and politics for three generations. ”

Zhou Chuan added the last sentence, Yu Linwei's experience of the past is vivid, and this kind of thing must be eliminated.

Meng Yi, who was waiting on the side, thought carefully about what Zhou Chuan said. After the last incident of the proud merchants, Wu Shangshu has been cautious in his words and deeds, and he does not dare to say much on the side, for fear of being disgusted by Zhou Chuan.

"Your Majesty!"

After a long time, Meng Yi spoke: "The minister thinks that this system is used to expand the territory, but it is not conducive to recuperation. ”

Zhou Chuan nodded, this is a reference to the Qin Dynasty's military merit title system, it can be said that the unification of the Qin Dynasty and the establishment of the military merit title system are inseparable, but success is also a military merit title system, and defeat is also a military merit title system.

Since the selection of officials in the Qin Dynasty was linked to the system of military merit titles, the positive significance of the method of selecting officials based on military merit was far less than before the reunification. Strengthening the system of martial arts in power is very necessary to accomplish the task of unifying the world. However, after reunification, the society will be basically stable, and it will be necessary to have talented people who are good at governing the country and developing the economy. At this time, we should follow the methods of the past, attach only importance to the armed forces, select officers from among the soldiers, and rank them according to their military merits, so that a large number of servicemen who can be accustomed to fighting will serve as officials at all levels, which will only intensify social contradictions.

This is also why the great Qin Dynasty II died.

However, it is undeniable that the system of twenty-level military merit titles embodies the wisdom of the sages of the Qin Dynasty. In both the Qin and Han dynasties, it inspired people to make great achievements.

The system of the Divine Dynasty is to inspire Zhou Chuan to compete for hegemony in the world, which coincides with this military merit title system. Completely follow the title of the Qin Dynasty, that is not good, what Zhou Chuan needs is simple and clear, so that people can understand it as soon as they hear it, and the treatment of different levels is not the same, this is the real killer feature of the military merit title system.

Unlike the current dynasty, except for the generals, all soldiers are treated the same, resulting in many soldiers being passive and unwilling to work hard to kill the enemy, because if they win the war, the rewards are all generals, and they can't get anything, but now it's different, as long as Zhou Chuan's system is introduced, then all the old generals can be overthrown in an instant.

This is also what Zhou Chuan is worried about, if the old generals resist, then Zhou Chuan should not kill them, if they are killed, Zhou Chuan will face no one available, no general.

"I know, but what I want is to expand my territory, and the king who keeps it is not suitable for me. Zhou Chuan's eyes flashed with a light called ambition.

This kind of thing as being a tortoise king will never belong to Zhou Chuan, what Zhou Chuan wants is the entire continent of living beings, defeating other dynasties, annexing them, strengthening his body, just like a greedy snake, constantly growing, and finally becoming the only god dynasty in the entire continent of living beings.

"Your Majesty, the minister has no objection. Meng Yi would definitely not object, his answer was the answer Zhou Chuan wanted.

And Wu Shangshu on the side, it's even simpler, he just needs to follow Zhou Chuan's wishes, it's okay, anyway, it's only the army that is reforming, and it has nothing to do with him, at least there is no conflict now.

"Okay, Zhang Long will take the Four Treasures of the Scholar's Room, and I will set up a detailed hierarchy for the reform of all the armies of the dynasty. When Zhou Chuan said this, he looked at Wu Shangshu again and said, "Wu Shangshu." You go to the veterans of Xuanjiangmen to enter the palace for a while, and I want to talk to them. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wu Suo's heart trembled, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that if Zhou Chuan wanted to launch a new military policy, he must not object to the people of the gate, otherwise it would be difficult to implement it.

Thinking of Zhou Chuan's repeated cleansing of the court after entering the palace, and worried about the death of the veteran generals, it doesn't matter if they die, I am afraid that Zhou Chuan's introduction of a new military policy will affect the border soldiers to rebel, and then it will become a disaster for the entire Wu Zhou Dynasty.

As a civil servant, what Wu did was to ask the people to live and work in peace and contentment, not to rebel against those rebellious things, and secondly, to make suggestions for the country and achieve stability and prosperity.

Regarding the fact that Zhou Chuan wanted to talk to the veteran general, he felt that there was a chance that something would go wrong, and he slowly left the palace with deep worry. He can only hope that those veterans know how to make trade-offs, if it is really going to make a big fuss, he is afraid that Zhou Chuan will be cleaned immediately.

Wu Suowei knows very well that an emperor who wants to expand his territory is by no means a master who can tolerate the rebellion of others, and if he wants to fight Zhou Chuan, he is really not qualified.

"Alas, I hope they are smarter, the Wu Zhou Dynasty can't afford to toss......"

Outside the palace, it gradually began to rain lightly, and Wu ran to the carriage in small steps, and his servants drove away quickly, and the royal city was peaceful.
